2016-11-28 |
[Bangkok Post] Two armed men opened fire at two Buddhist women in a drive-by gun attack, killing one, who was 8-months pregnant, and injuring the other in Pattani province on Saturday night. The incident occurred near a gas station in Panare district. As the pregnant woman, Rattakal Jawang, and Saijai Thongdee were heading home aboard a motorcycle, two armed men followed them on another motorcycle and opened fire. Ms Rattakal died from her injuries at the hospital. Doctors then removed her 8-month-old unborn child, but found the baby would not breathe. Police believe the attack was the work of insurgents. |
